Short: Simplified vocal text file reader
Uploader: mbarlow@pacific.telebyte.net
Author: mbarlow@pacific.telebyte.net
Type: util/misc
Requires: Translator Library and Narrator Device
Processor: 68040 or better
Version: 5.1-040
Distribution: Aminet
This program is a simplified version of WreadFiles51, a vocal text file
reader (unreleased). The large, built-in, USA translation enhancement
library (about 250 K-bytes) has been removed. The huge !USA.accent with translator 43 will
restore most of the functionality of the removed code. This program is
intended for primary use as a general file or book-length ASCII ETEXT
reader. It is not intended to be a 'SAY' program.
This program parses text into sentences for more natural reading. This
version of the basic WreadFiles program engine (cf. WreadFiles47) adds:
(a.) A decade graduated File Position Indicator that may be used to select
the reading point in the text with a shift-mouse click, and
(b.) Icon tooltype support for selection of the default Translator42 or
Translator43 accent for the program as well as the selection of specific
accents for given files.
The Translator.library and Narrator.device are required. The 2.04
versions are recommended. Translator43 is recommended. 1 Meg or more ram
is recommended. A 68020 or better processor is recommended for the
!USA.accent. See SWread.lha or SWread_020.lha for other processor
versions.
Note: A 68040 or better Motorola 68k series processor !_is_! required
for this subversion of the program.
